THE HEAD AND THK HEART.
IIY JOHN* O. SAKE.
The Head is stately, calm and wise,
And bears a princely part;
And dowu below, in secret lies
The warm, impulsive Heart.
Tbe lordly Head that sits above
Tbe Heart that beats below.
Tlieir several office plainly prove,
Their true relation show.
The Head erect, serene and cool,
Endowed with Reason's art,
Was set alott! to guide and rule
The throbliiug, wayward Heart.
And from thti Head, as from the higher,
Comes all-directing thought;
And in the Heart's transforming lire,
All noble deeds are wrought.
Yet each is beet when both unite
To make the man complete—
What were the heat without the light?
The light without the heat ?
THE DISASTER AT 1.EIPS1C.
Early in October, 1813, Napoleon was
in tho vioinity of Leipsie, with an army
of but 100,000 mon, while tho allied des.
pots of Europe had nearly surrounded
bim with forces 500,000 strong. The
military genius of tho Emperor waa such
and tho plan of his campaign so sagacious, that "under those circumstances,"
says Col. Napior,'lNapoloon would have
boon finally successful but for tbe continuation ofa troaohery which seemed,
at the timo, to bo considered a virtue by
sovereigns who wero unceasingly accusing thoir more noblo adversary of tbe
baseness they wore practicing themselves.
Circumstances, wbich we have not
space to spare to relate, compelled tbe
Emperor to abandon his design of marching upon Berlin, and to retrace bis steps
to Leipsie. It was a cruel compulsion,
which led bim to exclaim, " All is lost.
I am vainly contending against fate."
On the evening of the 15th of October, tho French army were assembled
around the walls of Leipsie; while the
allied hosts, rushing on, encircled tho
city with 350,000 men. Tho sentinels of
tho hostile armies wore, during the
night, posted within musket shot of
each other. At 9 o'clock in the morning of the 16th of October, the terrible
battle of Leipsie commenced. Napoleon
had hardly the remotest hope of victo-
_,. -vrv aUu.n,- BiiiU no LO Caullncourr,
"be overpowered by mere numbers.—
There are no scientific combinations
which can compensate for the thinness
thc midst of the conference, Napoleon,
in utter exhaustion, fell asleep in his
rrlrair. The officers, commiserating his
anguish, gazed upon bim in talent sadness. After a momenta doze, ire awoke,
and easting a look of astonishment
around him, exclaimed, "Am I awake,
or is it all a dream 1"
There was not a momont to be lost.
In an hour tbe exhausted soldiers, taking
advantago of the darkness, had com-
menced thoir retreat. Through all tbe morning, Cornebssen stated that an
hours of tho night they defiled across theWesting experiment had just been made,

treat, and wiili bugle peals and thunders of artillery roused the whole allied
host for pursuit.
While the halls and shells of the allies
wore falling thickly in tho streets oi
Leipsie, Napoleon took a sad and affectionate farewell of his faithfnlfriond, the
King of Saxony. In tho court-yard of
thc palace the two monarchs separated,
after a final embrace, never to meet
again. By a circuitous route, with great
difficulty, Napoleon escaped from the
city, aiid in the midst of a disordered
mass of fugitives crossed the Bister. To
prevent pursuit hy the foe tho bridge
had been effectually mined, and an officer was stationed to apply tho torch the
moment tho last of tho French troops
had passed. Napoleon had but just
crossed tho bridge when the victorious
allies, swoeping everything before them,
came rushing into Leipsie. The French
rear, under MacDonald, disputed every
inch of ground. An enormous mass of
wagons aud fugitives now crowded the
bridge, while shot and shell wore falling
like hailstones in their ranks. The officer entrusted with the torch lost his
p„,„„ oC ...Ind <™d ..P1»ll«d it too tOO.l
With a terrific explosion the bridge was
blown into tho air, and thus 25,000 of
the French army with 200 pieces of
cannon were cut off from all possibility
of them having boon killed and cut up
into tho smallest possible pieces, feathers
and all, and thrown to the other nineteen, had been gluttonously gobbled up
in an exceedingly brief space of timo
Another was taken from thc remaining
nineteen, and being chopped small, like
its predecessor, served up to the eighteen, and at once devoured like the other;
and so on to tho last, who was thus placed in tlio remarkable position of having
eaten his nineteen companions in a wonderfully short time ! All this most pleasantly narrated, obtained a success which
thc writer was far from anticipating for
tho story ran the rounds of all the journals in Europe. It then became almost forgotten for about a score of years,
when it came back from America, with
amplification, which it did not boast of
at the commencement, and with tho r
gular certificate ofthe autoposy of the
body of the surviving animal, whose
rosophagus was declared to have been
found seriously injured ! Every one
laughed at tho history of the canard
thus brought up again, but the world
retains its novel signification.

dead upon the plain. The French, who
had received thc assault behind their
redoubts, suffered much less severely
than the allied forces.
The next day, the 17th, the battle was
not renewed. The allies, exhausted and
bleeding, and appalled by tho tremendous slaughter which their foes had effected, rested through the day, awaiting the arrival of Bernadotte with a reinforcement of 00,000 Swedish troops.
The anguish of the Emperor, as he prepared for the continuation of the hopeless struggle, was terrific. In vivid

cilcss slaughter of another day, the exultation, in the great square at Leip-
probable annihilation of his army, the
overthrow of the independence of the
government of France, and of all the
frco governments of Europe, and his
own personal ruin. As Napoleon mounted his horse on the morning ol the 18th
ho said:
"This day will resolve a great question. The destiny of Franco is about to
bo decided on the field of Leipsie.
Should we be victorious, all our misfortunes may yet be repaired. Should wo
be conquered, it is impossible to foresee
what may bo the consequences of our
defeat."
"With the first rising of the sun, the
whole allied army was put in motion.
Tho view from the steeples of Leipsie.
was sublime beyond description, as the
horizon, iu all directions, seemed crowded with the pomp and panoply of war
—the whole majestic mas.*:, with banners and gleaming armor, and the clangor of innumerable bands, converging
on the city. Soon, louder than ten thousand thunders, arose the roar of battle.
One of earth's darkest storms of blood
and woe ensued.
i! During the whole of this eventful
day," says Sir Walter Scott, "in which
he might be said to fight less for victory
than for safety, this wonderful man continued calm, decided, collected, and supported his diminished and broken squadrons, in their valiant defense, with a
presence of mind and courage as deter
mined as he had so often, exhibited ii
sic. Napoleon, with his shattered army
continued his retreat toward Erfurth,
about one hundred and fifty miles distant. In five days he reached Erfurth.
Here Kurat ingloriously abandoned his
friend and benefactor and passed over
to the allies, hoping thus to secure the
crown of Naples. After resting two
days at Erfurth, Napoleon resumed his
march, the allies, in swarms, hanging
upon his rear, cutting off stragglers,
and yet not venturing upon any decisive attack. By rapid marches Napoleon
conducted his army back to France, followed by 600,000 foes. On the 5th of
November he reached St. Cloud, ihere
to prepare for the desperate and fatal
struggle beneath the walls of Paris.—

Unhappy Fate op Fat Men in Sparta,
—Tho ancient Spartans paid as much
attention tothe rearing of men as the
cattle-breeders of modern England do
to the breeding of cattle. They took
charge ofthe firmness and looseness of
men's flesh, and regulated the degree of
fatness to which it was lawful in a free
State for any citizen to extend Ms body.
Those who dared to grow soft or too fat
for military exercise and the sorvice of
Sparta wero soundly whipped. In one
particular instance, that of Nanclis the
son of Polypus, the offender was brought
before tho Ephori and a meeting ofthe
whole people of Sparta, at which his
unlawful fatness was publicly exposed;
and he was threatened with perpetual
banishment if he did not bring his body
within the regular Spartan compass, and
give up his culpable mode of living,
which was declared to bo more worthy
of an Ionian than of a son of Laceda>

The orb I like is not the ono
That dazzles with its lightning gleam ;
That dates to look upon tho sun,
As though it challenged brighter beam.
That orb may sparkle, flash aud roll ;
Its fire may blaze, its shafts may fly;
But not for me, I prize the soul
That slumbers in a quiet eye.
There's something in its placid shadu
That tells of calm, unworldly thought;
Hope may be crown'd. or joy delayed,
No dimness steals, no raj m caught;
Ite pensive language Be* a i tq Bay
" I kn iw thatlmoal o « * at I die,"
And death itself, come whim it may,
Can hardly change tho quiet eye.
There's meaning in its steady glance,
Of gentle blame ot* praising love,
That makes me tremble to ndvauco
A word, that meaning might reprove,
lhe haughty threat, the fiery look,
. My spirit proudly can defy,
Cut never yet eould meet or brook
Tlie upbraiding of a quiet eye.
There's firmness in its even light,
That anger of a breast sincere ;
And, oh I take watch how ve exeito
That firmness, till it yield a tear.
Some bosoms give an easy sigh,
Some drops of grief wiil freely start,
But that which sears the quiet eye,
Hath its deep foundation in the heart.

Editor T. T.: As I sit looking out of my window, my boy, ou the street below, and notice how
tranquilly all things are going on here, despite
the excitement of the time, a deep sense af satia-
faction steals over me, and the American eagle of
patriotic pride flapB his breezy pinions on the oak
tree of my heart. Though I have just beeu laughing myself almost sick at the ludicrous manner iu
which my friend, the confederacy, has walked
right straight into the cunning trap prepared for
hi9 destruction by our noble and profound Generals, actually hastening his own annihilation by
rushing blindly through onr lines, and capturing
the tweuty or thirly artful villages, towns and
garrisons left there for the express purpose of
tempting him to his dreadful doom—though I
have just been split..fug my sides over thia roaring

calmness of Washington under enAi circumstances^
and it reminds me ofa pleasing little incident in
the sixth waoflj
There was a female millinery establishment on
the third floor ofa building composed principally
of stairs, fed with frequent small rcoms, andthe
expatriated French Conntcsse, who realized fashionable bonnets there, used one of her windows to
display her warm. At this window, my boy, she
always kept a young woman of much bloom and
symmetry, with the Latest Style on her head, and
an expression of unutterable smile on her face. A
young chap carryng a trumpet in the Fire Department happened to notice that this angel of fashion
was always at the window when he went by; and
as she thought that she particularly admired his
personal charms crept over him, he at once adopted the plan of papsiug by every day, attired in
the garment best calculated to render fire-going
manhood most beautiful to the eye. Tie donned a
vest representing in detail the Sydenham flower
show on a yellow ground ; wore inexpressibles representing innumerable black sserpeuta ascending
white column, assumed a necktie concentrating al]
the li if hest glories of the Aurora Doreabes, mtmnt-
ed two breastpins and three studs torn from some
glass house, and wore a hat that slanted on his
head in an engaging and intelligent manner. Day
after day he passed before the millinery establishment, ray boy, still beholding tho beloved object at
the window, and occasionally placing his hand up.
is heart, in such a way as fo show a large and
gorgeous seal ring containing the hair of a fellow
fireman who had caught such a cold at a great fire
lhat he died some years alter. " How cam she is,"
says he to himself" and she's as pretty as ninety's
new hose carriage. It seems to me," says the
young chap to himself, stooping down to roll up
the other leg of his pants—"It seems to me I nev-
nything so cam. Sho observes my daily
agoing and yet she don't so much as send somebody down to see if there's any overcoats in the
front entry."
One day, my boy, a venerable Irish gentleman,
keeping a boarding house and ice cream saloon in
(he basement of thn establishment, happened to go
to sleep on tbe stair with a lighted camphene lamp
in his head, aud pretty soon the bells were ringing
conflagration in that dislict. Immediately our
gallant fire-men were on there way to the spot;
and having first gone through forty-two streets
on the other side ofthe city to wake tbe people up
there and apprise them of their great danger,
reached the dreadful scene, and instantly began to
extinguish the flames by bringing all the furniture
out of a bouse not more than three blocks below-
Iu the midst ofthese self-sacrificing efforts, a form
was seen to dart into the burning building like
a specter. It waa the enamored young chap who
carried a-trumpet in the department. Hehadseen
the beloved object sitting at the window, as usual,
and waa bent upon saving her, even though ho
missed the exciting fight around the corner,
Reaching the millinery room door, he could see
the object standing there in the midst of a sea of
fire. " How cam she is," eays he. " Mies Milliner," eays he, don't you see you're ell in a blaze?
T?ut still she stood at the window In all her calm-
uess. The devoted young chap turned toa fellow
fireman who was just theu selecting two Spring
bonnets and some ribbon for his wife, in order to
save them from the flames, and eays he : " Jakey
what shall I do?" But Jakey waa at that time
picking out some artificial flowers for his youneet
daughter, my boy, and made no answer. Unable
to reach the devoted maid, and rendered desperate
by the thought that she must be asleep in the
midst of her danger, the frantic young chap madly
hurled his trumpet at her. It struck her, and actually knocked her heed off! Horrified at what he
had done, the excited chap called himself a miserable wretch, and was led out hy the collar. It was
Jakey who did this deed of kindness, and says he :
" What's the matter with you my covey?" The
poor young chap wrung his hands, and eays be:
I've killed her, Jakey ; I've killed her—aud she
so cam." Jakey took some tobacco, and then says
he: " Why, that was only a pasteboard gal, you
poor devil." Arid so it was, my boy—so it was ;
but tho affair had euch an effect upon tho young
chap that he at onco took to drinking, aud when
delirium tremens marked him for its own, his last
words were: " I've killed-her, Jakey : I've killed
her—and sho so cam."
Washington, my boy, ia " cam " in tho midnt of
a conflagration. That is to say, lhe Government
ie . cam " they say ; and it may be doubted wheth.
er it would bo otherwise, even with its head kuock-
ed of!".
The olher day, I paid another visit.to the Mackerel camp across the river, and was present at a
meeting of officers called to debate upon the propriety of presenting a sword to the beloved General, for his heroism in the late great battle. Captain Samyule Sa-mith was in favor of the presentation, and eays he: " Our inimitableleadcr, which
is the admiration of everybod, richly deserves the
blade in question. In thc thickest of' that air
deadly fray, his coat tails were torn entirely off by
a parrot shell,"
Captain Villiam Brown placed the bottle on tho
table again, and says he ,
"At whicli joint were the tails amputated?—
Samyule?"
Samyule took a litlle more eugar with his, and
says he :
" Close to the buttons."
" Ah !" says Villiam, "which way was the conqueror's face turned at the time ?"
" I can't says," says Sn ray uie ; "but I don't seo
what that has to do with it."
"That, because you have a feeble intellect.
Samyule," saya Villiam, mildly. "The hum
form," says Villiam, reasoningly, 'has such v
nations of surface, that a projectile burled at it in
a straight line, cannot simp\y graze it to any ex
tent without making a wound in some place. Tbe

The electrifying wisdom of this thoughtful
speech, my boy, had Ihe effect to produce an immediate adjournment of the General's friends ; for
when the test of anatomy is applied to a man's
bravery, that bravery becomes a mere matter Oj
form.
The Gcneriil, my boy, is the idol of the Mackerel children, and as our armies slowly advance to
deal the deathblow to this impious rebelio
be proved that ho was not responsible for
one of the mistakes he has made, and could have
taken Richmond long ago, but for bis inability to
do so. Heaven forgive these Jacobin Black Republicans who object to bis being President
18G5. This is the prayer of twenty millions free
white men under the Constitution, as was very
justly observed to me by a political chap from
New Havcu last week. On Tuesday, the Mackerel Brigade was on the outskirts of Accomac—
Company 3, Regiment 1, being sent ahead, under
Colonel Wobert Wobinson, to watch the movements of some regiment? of Confederacies, who
were believed to be either there or in South Carolina. The advance guard stayed there two days,
my boy, and then an orderly came riding iu to the
General, with lhe request that be would immediately send reinforcements and provisions, ns Company 3, Regiment 1, was iu danger of starvation
and defeat at short notice.
The General ceased fanning himself for a moment, and says he to the perspiring orderly :
"I have heard your request, my child ; but before I comply wilh it, I wish to know wbat is the
present political complexion of Coloel Wobinson."
The half straved orderly clasped his thiu hands
together, and eays he :
"I dou't know what ; but for God's sake, Gen.,
send us something to eat, aud some help, or uot
one of us can be saved."
The Geueral waved his hand magisterially, and
s*ayB he :
"That's very true. But I must first know what
are the sentiments of Colouel Wobinson on the
negro question."
The orderly might have responded, my boy, had
he not fainted just then irom weakness. In pity
for his comrades, orders were at once given fur
the transportation of provisions and reinforcements to Company 3 before the^nd of the month .
and had the before-mentioned Confederacies delayed marching into Accomac until that time, I
should not be obliged now to chronicle another of
those disasters to our arms, which the traitorous
harangues of Wendell Phillips have so outrageous.'
ly produced.
If this war is to be prosecuted with vigor, my
boy we must repose unlimited confidence in ihe
ability of tbe Administration and of our Generals,
resolutely frowning dowu all Jacobin deuioMra-
tions at home, and eu fieri ng our loaders to be interfered, with by no one but each other. If we
permit civilian's to manage matters, the country
will bo undone ; but if, on the contrary,7 wo trout
everything to our Generals, the country will be
"done"—brown.
Luckily for us all, the occupation of Accomac
by the celebrated Southern Confederacy, is a part
ofthe great plan of the General of the Mackerel
Brigade to end thie rebellion in one crushing
blow, and as soon as the entire Confederacy shall
have entered Accomac in safety, the Mackerel
Brigade will proceed to J.
Vou don't see exactly how lhat ia to be done

There you go again, my boy! alwas meddlin-
with what you don't understand, and presuming,
jn your civilian imbecility, to doubt tbe practicability—not to say the utility- 0fa covert in-
vineibilty, rendering ita futility on the part of
Southern agility to take for weak debility what is
really strategic facility, and bound, in groat fertility of warlike iuvetibility and utterreability, to
turn all the foe's agility to a final accountability
that shall cause hits, In future humility, to treat
us, least, with civility.
Such, my boy, is the Mackerel plan to a T.
This strategy's like some plan for again depending on a fall of rain, that, in less than a week,
should the drought remain, 'twould ruin it alto^

Sir! before I approach;ihat subject, allow mo to
say that, ia my humble judgment, ihe institution
of slavery presents two questions totally distinct
and resting on entirely different grounda—slavery,
withiu the StateB and slavery without the States.'
Congress, the General Government, has no power
under the Constitution oi the United States, except
in three specified particulars in that instrument :
to adjust the subject of representation ; to imposo
taxes wheu a system of taxation is made ; and to
perform the duty of surrendering or causing to be
delivered up fugitive elavee that my escape from
service which they owe in elave Statee, and take
refuge in free States.
And, eir, I am ready to say that if Congress wore
to attack, within the States, the institution of
slavery, then, Mr. President, my voice would be
for war ; then would be made a case which would
justify in the sight of God, and iu tbe presence of
the nation ofthe earth, resistance oa the part of
the slave States to euch an unconstitutional and
usurped attempt as would be made on thc euppo-
sition which I had elated.
Then we should be acting iu defense of our
rights, our domicile, our property, our, eafety, our
lives; and, then, I think, would be furniehed a
caee in which the slave-holdiug States would bo
justified by all considerations which pertain to the
happiaesa and security of man, to employ every
instrument wbich God or nature had placed in
their hands, to resist snch an attempt on the part
war Bhould break out, and we should present to
the nations of the earth the specacie of one portion
of this Union endeavoring to subvert an institution
in violation of the Conetitution and the most ea-
cred obligations whi:h can hind men ; we should
have the sympathies, the good wishes, and desiro
for our success of all men who love justice and
truth.
A Rebel Sox of Geo. D. Phe.vfice Killed at

Lpnisville Journal el tbe 2d contains a brief editorial, with black head and fool lines, in memory
f the death of one of Prentice's sons, who left
his home only a few weeks ago to joiu the rebels.
He was killed in the attack ou Augusta, Ky. The
Journal says:
"William Courfland Prentice was no common
young man. He was remarkable in his powera
and ie his temperament. A model of manly beauty, he had extraordinary intellectual energy, a
strong thirst for strange and curious knowledge,
and a deep passion for all that ia sublime and beau-
tiful iu poetry and nature. He was generous,
manly, high-hearted, and of a courage that no
mortal peril, come in wbat form it might, could
daunt. Ho exulted in looking destruction face to
face in all its ways. He loved wild and dangerous
adventure for the very danger's sake. His eagle
spirit lived among the mountain crags and shouted back to the shouts of the storm. Although
kind, unselfish, and humane, he was impetuous,
passionate, and of unconquerable prejudices. He
was not unfreqiiently unjust in his judgments, aud
be permitted nothing to stand between him and
the execution of his purposes.

THE DISASTER AT 1.EIPS1C.
Early in October, 1813, Napoleon was
in tho vioinity of Leipsie, with an army
of but 100,000 mon, while tho allied des.
pots of Europe had nearly surrounded
bim with forces 500,000 strong. The
military genius of tho Emperor waa such
and tho plan of his campaign so sagacious, that "under those circumstances,"
says Col. Napior,'lNapoloon would have
boon finally successful but for tbe continuation ofa troaohery which seemed,
at the timo, to bo considered a virtue by
sovereigns who wero unceasingly accusing thoir more noblo adversary of tbe
baseness they wore practicing themselves.
Circumstances, wbich we have not
space to spare to relate, compelled tbe
Emperor to abandon his design of marching upon Berlin, and to retrace bis steps
to Leipsie. It was a cruel compulsion,
which led bim to exclaim, " All is lost.
I am vainly contending against fate."
On the evening of the 15th of October, tho French army were assembled
around the walls of Leipsie; while the
allied hosts, rushing on, encircled tho
city with 350,000 men. Tho sentinels of
tho hostile armies wore, during the
night, posted within musket shot of
each other. At 9 o'clock in the morning of the 16th of October, the terrible
battle of Leipsie commenced. Napoleon
had hardly the remotest hope of victo-

There was not a momont to be lost.

cilcss slaughter of another day, the exultation, in the great square at Leip-
probable annihilation of his army, the
overthrow of the independence of the
government of France, and of all the
frco governments of Europe, and his
own personal ruin. As Napoleon mounted his horse on the morning ol the 18th
ho said:
"This day will resolve a great question. The destiny of Franco is about to
bo decided on the field of Leipsie.
Should we be victorious, all our misfortunes may yet be repaired. Should wo
be conquered, it is impossible to foresee
what may bo the consequences of our
defeat."
"With the first rising of the sun, the
whole allied army was put in motion.
Tho view from the steeples of Leipsie.
was sublime beyond description, as the
horizon, iu all directions, seemed crowded with the pomp and panoply of war
—the whole majestic mas.*:, with banners and gleaming armor, and the clangor of innumerable bands, converging
on the city. Soon, louder than ten thousand thunders, arose the roar of battle.
One of earth's darkest storms of blood
and woe ensued.
i! During the whole of this eventful
day," says Sir Walter Scott, "in which
he might be said to fight less for victory
than for safety, this wonderful man continued calm, decided, collected, and supported his diminished and broken squadrons, in their valiant defense, with a
presence of mind and courage as deter
mined as he had so often, exhibited ii
sic. Napoleon, with his shattered army
continued his retreat toward Erfurth,
about one hundred and fifty miles distant. In five days he reached Erfurth.
Here Kurat ingloriously abandoned his
friend and benefactor and passed over
to the allies, hoping thus to secure the
crown of Naples. After resting two
days at Erfurth, Napoleon resumed his
march, the allies, in swarms, hanging
upon his rear, cutting off stragglers,
and yet not venturing upon any decisive attack. By rapid marches Napoleon
conducted his army back to France, followed by 600,000 foes. On the 5th of
November he reached St. Cloud, ihere
to prepare for the desperate and fatal
struggle beneath the walls of Paris.—

Be Cheerful.—Come now, be cheerful, if you cannot pay your debts immediately, do thc best you can, and pay
them as you are able. " Care killed a
cat." If you have not fifty cents to luxuriate upon the delicacies of the season,
appropriate half of that amount for
something moro substantial and wholesome ; kiss your wife if you have one,
if not kiss some pretty girl and marry
her immediately—for acts of desperation frequently result happily and beneficially in their effects. If you have
any children, romp with them; if not,
romp with your neighbor's. Look upon
the bright side of everything—but on a
cheerful countenance—keep your mind
in the right trim, and if you find that
your native town will not support you,
pack up and go somewhere else. At all],

Unhappy Fate op Fat Men in Sparta,
—Tho ancient Spartans paid as much
attention tothe rearing of men as the
cattle-breeders of modern England do
to the breeding of cattle. They took
charge ofthe firmness and looseness of
men's flesh, and regulated the degree of
fatness to which it was lawful in a free
State for any citizen to extend Ms body.
Those who dared to grow soft or too fat
for military exercise and the sorvice of
Sparta wero soundly whipped. In one
particular instance, that of Nanclis the
son of Polypus, the offender was brought
before tho Ephori and a meeting ofthe
whole people of Sparta, at which his
unlawful fatness was publicly exposed;
and he was threatened with perpetual
banishment if he did not bring his body
within the regular Spartan compass, and
give up his culpable mode of living,
which was declared to bo more worthy
of an Ionian than of a son of Laceda>
